A magnetic resonance imaging device includes magnetic field generating
means and control means for controlling receiving means according to a
predetermined pulse sequence, the predetermined pulse sequence including
an unnecessary material suppressing sequence unit for canceling a signal
from an unnecessary material which is not a measurement target and a main
imaging sequence unit for measuring a nuclear magnetic resonance signal
used to create an image of an examinee. The unnecessary material
suppressing sequence unit generates at least two or more high frequency
magnetic field pulses so that the longitudinal magnetization of the
unnecessary material is made spatially uniform in the imaging space under
application of a first high frequency magnetic field pulse in the main
imaging sequence unit. The magnetic resonance imaging device further
includes adjusting means for adjusting the flip angles of the two or more
high frequency magnetic field pulses, and the control means applies the
two or more high frequency magnetic field pulses at the flip angles
adjusted by the adjusting means.
